Mawaru Penguindrum Rewatch - Ep. 1
the fucking STARS floating all over Himari and her bedroom - the same fucking stars associated with Ringo from her introduction, all as Shouma talks about (the cruelty of) fate
that gyroscope thingy? the beads on it arenât red at the start here
And the kids:
âThe apple is the universe itself. A universe in the palm of your hand. Itâs what connects this world and the other world. / Other world? / The world Campanella and the other passengers are heading to. / What does that have to do with an apple? / Basically, the apple is the reward given to those whoâve chosen, of their own free will, to die for love*. / But everythingâs over when youâre dead. / Itâs not over. What Iâm trying to say is thatâs actually where everything begins! / I donât get it at all. / Iâm talking about love!â
*This is Treeâs translation, as the subtitles werenât quite accurate
Other than the fact that these kids are replaced by Kanba and Shouma in the last episode, and that itâs an obtuse summary of the ending, it also gives us two things:
1. âThe apple is the reward given to those whoâve chosen to die for love.â Apple, or in Japanese, Ringo. Itâs no coincidence that thereâs a character literally named âappleâ in a show with very heavy apple symbolism. And in the end, Shouma takes Ringoâs punishment, allowing Ringo to be with Himari, who is the only character that willingly, knowingly, chose to give up her life force so that Kanba (and everyone else) would survive. (I mean, Ringo, too, also willingly accepts the fact that sheâll die in order to save Himari, so whoâs to say who got the fruit ;P) (But I consider Himariâs sacrifice to be more in line with whatâs said here, as she chose to die and has a whole scene about it, whereas Ringo merely accepted that she would die if she chose to use the spell.)
2. âEverythingâs over when youâre dead. / Thatâs actually where everything begins.â This might be reaching a bit more, but here it goes: Kanba shared the apple with Shouma when they were both on the brink of death in the boxes. They are both alive because of the fate they shared, which is why, when Shouma burns, Kanba goes, too, but they return essentially back at the age where they shared that fate. They die, and return to where everything began.
I still donât know whatâs up with that weird statue with the two dudes being a ball. And it is clearly two dudes. Every time I see it, I feel like thereâs a globe missing between them, like it should be some kind of gay re-imagining of Atlas. I could probably make it about Kanba and Shouma and how they make each otherâs world whole or whatever, but, well...itâs a weird statue.
Thereâs a small sea otter plush and kappa plush (miniatures of the ones Ringo has) by the register where theyâre buying Himariâs Hat. Himariâs Hat which is...half of Momoka...that they wrapped in a pink ribbon... lol
Okay, Iâm just...I love the little things that keep visually/thematically linking Himari and Ringo.
I wonder if Kanbaâs resolve during Himariâs death has anything to do with the fact that he already lost one family...
Tree went back to pause on the blackboard behind Tabuki during the classroom scene - the only translated part of the board is âhow embryogenesis works,â but it is talking about frog development. And one of the pictures thatâs shown in this episode and gets focused on near the end of the series has Shouma holding a frog (and Kanbaâs shirt saying âlove frogâ), and then thereâs Ringoâs whole occult deal with the frogs...
Why are there so many frogs?!?!?!
(Tree said that if this was a âthe scorpion and the toadâ thing, they were gonna be pissed) (as far as we can recall, it doesnât fit with...anything, symbolically, but itâs funny, nonetheless)
Red umbrella...when the penguin was sent by Kanba... (Kanba loves his bro, mâkay?)
San-chan teaching Himari how to knit!
Tree pointed out that the penguinsâ autonomous actions are reflections of various needs/desires of their human buddies. Kanba and Shoumaâs penguins recklessly pursue things to try to fill the âemptinessâ they sense in their humans - emptiness that comes from the fact that Kanba and Shouma are two halves of a whole thanks to the apple they shared. They are only âwholeâ when theyâre together, but because Shouma doesnât remember, thereâs a schism and they canât connect the way theyâre supposed to. Kanbaâs penguin pursues erotica as a crude representation of the love Kanba desires. Shoumaâs penguin consumes everything in sight because it doesnât know why the emptiness is there (because Shouma doesnât remember why), itâs just trying to fill the void in any way it thinks it can.
Himariâs penguin, though, is very stable, but is also constantly knitting. Himari picks it up from San-chan, and San-chan knits even when Himari is not. Treeâs theory is that San-chan is stable because Himari is âwholeâ - she has life force from both Kanba and Shouma. But theyâre unstable and unable to connect, so San-chan knits as a desire to weave them back together.
Is the gyroscope around the world in the teddydrum sequence the same as the one in the doctorâs office? I mean, it looks VERY similar, and given that the gyroscope changes in Sanetoshiâs presence and is focused on a lot around him...
Tree just asked if it was supposed to be the Gears of Fate. It probably is, since itâs associated with both Sanetoshi and Momoka.
âIf a man ignored fate, and ignored his instincts and DNA to love someone else... Is he really human?â
On the surface this looks like heâs asking if heâs still human for loving his sister, but knowing that Kanba and Himari arenât related at all (and Kanba knows that) means this interpretation doesnât hold water. The other argument could be made that heâs ignoring his âfateâ as the son of the Natsume clan...but he was already disowned, and it had nothing to do with Himari. So this canât really be about Himari. So whoâs the only other logical person Kanba could love that would be against âfate,â âinstincts,â and âDNAâ?
It has to be Shouma.
(This is an interpretation that has to be made with the full awareness that media is not created in a vacuum, and nobodyâs opinions in the show are meant to be Absolutely Correct - homophobia and the misconceptions of homosexuality are very much A Thing, and even if the author is aware that these are misconceptions, thereâs nothing saying that Kanba knows they are. As a story set in a time and world like ours, itâs entirely possible for Kanba to believe that loving another boy is against fate, (survival) instincts, and DNA, especially if he believes that his âfateâ was to be with Himari.)
Tree also pointed out that this question couldâve been posed in a platonic sense - as in, heâs chosen to love and protect a family thatâs not his own, which goes against basic survival instincts that dictate that he should be loving and protecting his own blood family (whose survival would still continue his own genetic line, even if he himself doesnât reproduce).
Either way, a romantic love for Himari wouldnât be going against fate/instinct/DNA, as sheâs an unrelated female. So either heâs talking about a platonic, familial love for Himari, or heâs talking about a romantic love for Shouma.
